This large European EPIC study investigated the effects of dietary factors on cancer incidence. Red and processed meat was associated with gastrointestinal (GI) cancers whereas Mediterranean diet, high intake of fiber and fish were associated with decreased incidence of some GI cancers. Associations of dietary factors in breas, prostate and lung cancers were much weaker. Gonzalez and Riboli. Eur J Cancer 2010;46:2555-2562
